Come September by Arundhati Roy is just one item of note on the Vietnam Vets Against War site. It reads in part:
"Quite often these days, I find myself being described as a "social activist." Those who agree with my views, call me
"courageous." Those who don't, call me all kinds of rude names, which I won't repeat. I am not a social activist, neither
am I particularly courageous . . . So please do not underestimate the trepidation with which I say what I must."
